Creationists basically. The idea that creationism should be at all in school is absurd. The idea that it should be taught OVER evolution is down right preposterous. We might as well be teaching kids alchemy instead of chemistry, Noah's Ark building techniques instead of engineering, and young earth flood theories instead of geology. It's borderline offensive what some of these creationists are pushing.

I hate when someone asks "Why don't you...?" Idk if I can properly explain it, but that wording just irks me. Like it assumes stupidity on my part.

People who don't use their turn signals in cars. I have contemplated keeping a bat in my car and following people to their destination and destroying their tail lights. When they get mad, I will simply respond, "You don't use them anyways."
I have this crazy belief that people who are too lazy to use their turn signals are inherently terrible drivers and will kill other people as a direct result of non-blinking.
I've already followed people home from road rage; the bat would just be the next step.

know what's worse than people who don't use turn signals? people who put their blinker on at the exact moment that they start turning or lane changing or whatever. it's like, the entire point of a turn signal is so you can give prior notice that you're gonna be turning or whatever, so you're defeating the entire purpose if you wait until you're in the middle of turning to turn on your signal


Shit like that really drives me nuts. Now imagine this on the highways in Germany: no speed limit, you're doing 120 mph and some blind retard driving 65 mph just cuts in front of you without bothering to blink or at least look in the rear mirror. Added bonus: after you've barely avoided a crash and pass them afterwards, you see them talking on a mobile phone.

Bad posts in TL really grind my gears. Some people just put such little thought into their posts. Most of the stuff on this site is spam, but I guess in real life 99% of what people say is spam. Not all minds produce great thoughts.

This. Theres no clever way to say that creationist and anti-evolutionaries are the dumbest type of people, fearful and as zealot as suicide bombers.

People using "..ould of" instead of "..ould've" or "..ould have".

I hate when people tell me to "have a blessed day." I get that at work from a lot of people if I don't say "have a good day" first.

I hate when people say "did you know" when they know I don't. Just say what you want to say, don't lead into it like that.

I hate airplanes in the night sky (they are most defanetly not like shooting stars ). I love to look at the sky. Telescope and everything. When there is an airplane in sight, it just drives me bannanas.

I also hate when people say "drives me bannanas" or something stupid like that to sound random. You're not random - you are trying too hard.

People who say "gay" and "retarded" also bug me. Yeah, I said it too back in middle school, but we're adults now and we shouldn't say things that insult an entire group of people.

This is prob controversial and I'm going to get flamed for saying it, but, this is a place to rant and I'm going to say it anyway: I HATE when people in the military get treated like heros just for doing it. Yeah, some of them are, and they deserve respect. But a lot of them are just doing it for a paycheck, not because of a love for their country.

That's it for now. More later.

I hate when stupid grass-skirt and headband hippies try to give me nutritional advice at the only stupid store in town that carries decent bread (high protein and low sugar whole grain bread).

What, because I work out and shop at a natural food store, I suddenly need advice on how to do it as a vegan? Just let me buy my damn bread, yes I want a bag, yes I am using visa "even though it costs the store money".

I hate pushy vegans and vegetarians. It's not the best way! I like meat, and I like beer!

Stupid people grind my gears especially dumb asses who think they know anything. Also when someone argues with me in a subject I have superior knowledge in and won't back out after they've lost. Also the biggest one is probably women who lead men on seen my friends and myself get hurt over stupid shit because of it.
